Former boxing star Tommy Doyle paid tribute to his dad Chris, who passed away. The 32-year-old took to social media and posted a photo with his father while he was champion.
His touching tweet read: “Dad, my hero I love you so much. Thank you for teaching me everything. Sleep well my best pal. I’ll sort the job out down here I promise you and I promise to take care of Mum and my brothers.”
The senior Coyle was a very popular and respected figure in their local city of Hull for being the face - and voice - of Coyle and Sons: The Original Barrow Boys fruit and vegetable stall. In 2018, Chris spoke to Hull Live about what it was like running his market stall.
